Abstract (type = abstract)
Providing parents with a healthy stress relieving method can be an effective way of providing family-centered care. At the initial neurodevelopmental pediatrician appointment, children are being assessed and evaluated for a developmental delay. This initial interaction would be a beneficial time to introduce a coping mechanism for parents. Parents were asked to practice mindfulness using a smartphone application to alleviate self-reported stress levels. The parents responded to a stress survey before and after the intervention. This quality improvement project focused on evaluating the effectiveness of mindfulness practices in order to lower self-reported stress levels.
